Office Backgrounds for Zoom
posted by
These aren’t our usual multi-angle and multi-layered virtual studio sets, they’re just nicely shot single images that you can use as virtual backgrounds for Zoom, or any video conferencing apps where you’re able to add your own background picture. You can look like you’re in the (virtual) office, and not sitting in the (actual) kitchen with the kids running around..!
So far, we’ve created three packs with 10 images in each:
There’s also a FREE pack with some sample images that you can download right now, and try for yourself.
We thought these might be useful for anyone who’s suddenly working from home, but still wants to give a nice professional impression on video-conferences. You will hopefully find that these are a nice subtle way to give a more business-like feel to your video calls, or virtual presentations.
Most of the images have some depth of field, and some have a lot of real lens-blur for a nice stylized effect on close-ups. Having some depth of field helps to keep the person looking sharp, and stops the background becoming too distracting or overwhelming. Just a nice classy-looking background image.
We’ve tried to keep most of them pretty ‘generic’ – so you could really be anywhere. But the eagle-eyed amongst you might recognise The Hive (Leitrim’s Technology Enterprise Centre) in Carrick-on-Shannon to whom we’re very grateful for the use of their fully serviced office spaces, meeting rooms and hot desks.
If you find these useful, please do get in touch and let us know – we’re happy to add more if people are finding them useful. It’s a tricky time – the Coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic is making WFH (working from home) a necessity for many of us right now. Hopefully these office backgrounds might come in handy, and make things a little easier for some folk.
Don’t forget to check out our full selection of professional virtual studio sets for live-streaming with Tricaster or vMix, and most post-production and editing applications.
Stay safe everyone!
